He Carried An AR-15 And Handgun When He Went To The J.C. Penney Store (33)
montemonte: The state of Utah has an open gun carry law so technically he wasn't doing anything wrong but how smart was it to do that in a store.
My personal opinion is that it's INSANE to carry a gun like this into a store where there are children.
When you look at the video, imagine standing next to him when you pay for your purchase.
He wanted to prove that law abiding citizens are not a threat when they carry a gun.
Did he go to the extreme to prove a point?http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/18/joseph-kelley-gun-rifle-jc-penney-guns-safe-law-abiding-citizens_n_2504142.html

This picture was taken at a JcPenney by me, here in Riverdale, Utah! He is NOT breaking any Utah State laws. You DO NOT have to be a CCP holder in order to open carry in Utah as long as it is 2 actions away from firing. If you ARE a CCP holder in Utah, your firearm can be loaded. Obviously he is exercising his 2nd amendment right! People are torn about this picture and wondering if he is going overboard. I think he is proving a damn good point!

Since I do not know the rules of etiquette in USA, can anyone tell me in which places one has the right to bear arms and in which has not?

According with that list, in Utah...should this man have an special license to carry a gun there?

I would imagine he does have a license for both guns since he's openly carrying them in the public. And especially since he's trying to show that he's not a danger to anyone in the store.
People have pulled the same stunt boarding an airplane with a hidden gun to prove that they were able to get on the airplane and that security checks don't catch every gun.

So, it's a kind of demonstration, something il.legal but not punishable?

Yes it is a demonstration but not illegal since Utah is an open carry state.

You are most definitely correct that there are towns in New Jersey that I wouldn't venture into during the daylight.
And I have no doubt that there are people in New Jersey that have a gun under their jacket BUT those are the criminals.
People in New Jersey don't have this need to carry a gun to protect themselves. It's just not the way we live.
Thing is, I didn't know until I read the article in this link that New Jersey is an open carry state (licensed required).
I have never seen anyone in New Jersey walking around with a gun on their hip unless it's a police officer.
